Given:

Total time = 12 hours

1 / 5^th of total distance at the speed of 6 km / hr

Remaining distance(4 / 5^th of total distance) at the speed of 8 km / hr

Formula used:

Speed = Distance / Time

Calculation:

Let the total distance be x

So according to question,

(x / 5) / 6 + (4x / 5) / 8 = 12

⇒ x / 30 + x / 10 = 12

⇒ 4x / 30 = 12

⇒ x = 90

∴ Distance between A and B = 90 km

Given:

4^th year compound interest = Rs. 6000

5^th year compound interest = Rs. 6750

Concept:

Compound interest is interest calculated on the initial principal, which also include all of the

accumulated interest from previous periods.

Calculation:

⇒ Difference between 5^th yr CI and 4^th yr CI = 6750 - 6000 = 750

∴ Rate of interest = 750 × 100 / 6000 = 75 / 6 = 12.5%

Given:

Volume of cone = 1232 cm³ 

Height of cone = 24 cm

Formula used:

Volume of a cone = πR²H / 3

R = base radius of cone

H = height of cone

Calculation:

Let the base radius of cone be r

⇒ 1232 = πr² × 24 / 3

⇒ πr² = 154

⇒ (22 / 7) × r² = 154

⇒ r² = 7 × 7

⇒ r = 7 cm

∴ Base radius of cone = 7 cm.

Given:

Principal = Rs. 4200

Amount = Rs. 5082

Time = 3 years

Formula used:

Simple interest = Amount - Principal

Simple interest = Principal × Rate × Time / 100

Calculation:

Let the rate of interest be r

(5082 - 4200) = 4200 × r × 3 / 100

⇒ 882 = 126r

⇒ r = 7

∴ Rate of interest per annum = 7%

Calculation:

16 = 2⁴

20 = 2² × 5

∵ HCF is the product of the common factors and LCM is the product of the highest powers of all the factors

LCM of (16, 20) = 2⁴ × 5 = 80

HCF of (16, 20) = 2² = 4

⇒ HCF / LCM = 4 / 80 = 1 / 20

∴ Required ratio = 4 : 80 = 1 : 20

Given:

Marked price (MP) = 160% of Cost price (C.P.)

Profit = 20%

Formula used:

Cost price × (100 + Profit percentage)/100 = Selling price

Marked Price × (100 - Discount percentage)/100 = Selling price

Calculation:

Let the cost price be 100 and discount percentage be D

So, Marked price = 160 and Selling price = 120

According to Question,

160 × (100 - D)/100 = 120

⇒ (100 - D) = 3 × 100/4

⇒ 100 - D = 75

⇒ D = 25

∴ Discount percentage = 25%

Formula used:

Average = Sum of all quantities / Total number of quantities

Calculation:

Let the initial average be x and the 12 years old boy is replaced by a new boy whose age is y

According to question,

18x - 12 + y = 18(x + 1.5)

⇒ 18x - 12 + y = 18x + 27

⇒ y = 39

∴ The age of new boy = 39 years

Given:

P : Q = 5 : 6

R : Q = 25 : 9

Calculation:

(P : R) = (P : Q) × (Q : R)

⇒ P : R = (5 : 6) × (9 : 25)

∴ P : R = 3 : 10

Given:

Speed = 48 km / hr

Time = 14 hours

Formula used:

Speed = Distance / Time

Calculation:

Total distance covered by car in 14 hours with a speed of 48 km / hr = 48 × 14 km

Now the new speed = 84 km / hr

∴ Time taken by car = (48 × 14) / 84 = 8 hours

Formula used:

Mean = Sum of all observation / Total observation

Calculation:

Writing the given data in the form of a series

5, 15, 15, 15, 20, 20, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 35, 40, 40

Number of observation (people) = 14

Mean = (5 + 3 × 15 + 4 × 20 + 2 × 25 + 30 + 35 + 2 × 40) / 14

Mean = (5 + 45 + 80 + 50 + 30 + 35 + 80) / 14

Mean = (325)/14

⇒ Rs. 23.21

∴ Mean saving per person is Rs. 23.21

Calculation:

From the available pie chart,

Total time taken to make a car = 1200 hours

Percentage of time taken in J2 = 18%

Percentage of time taken in J5 = 12%

⇒ Percentage time taken in J2 and J5 = (18 + 12)% = 30%

∴ Total time taken in J2 and J5 = 30% of 1200 = 360 hours

Given:

Volume of cone = 2464 cm³ 

Height of cone = 12 cm

Formula used:

Volume of a cone = πR²H / 3

R = base radius of cone

H = height of cone

Calculation:

Let the base radius of cone be r

⇒ 2464 = πr² × 12 / 3

⇒ πr² = 616

⇒ (22 / 7) × r² = 616

⇒ r² = 28 × 7

⇒ r = 14 cm

∴ Base radius of cone = 14 cm.

Calculation:

Total time taken to make a car = 1200 hours

Percentage of time required for J1 = 14%

Percentage of time required for J4 = 8%

Percentage difference of time between J1 and J4 = (14 - 8)% = 6%

∴ Difference between the time taken in processes J1 and J4 = 6% of 1200 = 72 hours

Given:

A and C together can complete the work in days = 120

C and E together can complete the work in days = 80

A and E together can complete the work in days = 160

Concept:

In this type of question always consider the total work as LCM of individual number of days.

Formula used:

Efficiency = Total work / Number of days

Calculation:

Let the total number of work be LCM of 120, 80, 160 i.e. 480 unit

Efficiency of A and C together = 480 / 120 = 4 unit / day

Efficiency of C and E together = 480 / 80 = 6 unit / day

Efficiency of A and E together = 480 / 160 = 3 unit / day

So efficiency of A, C, and E together = (4 + 6 + 3) / 2 = 13 / 2

∴ A, C, and E together can complete the work in days = 480 / (13 / 2) = 960 / 13 days

Follow the BODMAS rule to solve this question, as per the order given below,

10 - [6 - 4 - (2 ÷ 1 - 2)]

⇒ 10 - [6 - 4 - (2 - 2)]

⇒ 10 - [6 - 4]

⇒ 10 - 2

⇒ 8

∴ The value of Expression is 8

Given:

12 persons can complete half of the work in 9 days.

Formula used:

(M × D) / W = Constant

Where,

M = number of persons

D = number of days

W = work

Calculation:

Let the person required to complete the work in 6 days be x

According to formula,

12 × 9 / (w / 2) = x × 6 / (w)

⇒ 6x = 24 × 9

⇒ x = 36

∴ Number of persons required to complete the work in 6 days = 36

Given:

A = 80% of B

Calculation:

A = (4 / 5) of B

⇒ A / B = 4 / 5

Let the value of A be 4x and B be 5x

So, (2B - A) / A = ((2 × 5x) - 4x) / 4x

⇒ (2B - A) / A = 6x / 4x

∴ (2B - A) / A = 3 / 2

Given:

Length = 16 meters

Breadth = 12 meters

Height = 15 meters

Concept:

Length of the largest rod that can be put in a room is equal to the length of the diagonal of that

room.

Formula used:

Diagonal of a cuboid = √(l² + b² + h²)

Where l, b, and h are respectively the length, breadth, and height of a room

Calculation:

Length of longest rod = √(16² + 12² + 15²)

⇒ Length of longest rod = √(256 + 144 + 225) = √625 = 25m

∴ Length of longest rod = 25 m

Given:

Perimeter of triangle = 63 cm

The ratio of sides = 4 : 3 : 2

Formula used:

Perimeter of triangle = a + b + c

Where a, b, and c are sides of the triangle

Calculation:

Let the sides of the triangle be 4x, 3x, and 2x

⇒ 4x + 3x + 2x = 63

⇒ 9x = 63

⇒ x = 7

⇒ 4x = 4 × 7

⇒ 28

∴ The length of the largest side 28 cm.

Given:

X : Y = 7 : 5      ---(i)

Y : Z = 7 : 11      ---(ii)

Calculation:

To equate the value of Y in both equations we will multiply equation (i) by 7 and (ii) by 5 we get,

X : Y = 49 : 35

Y : Z = 35 : 55

∴ X : Y : Z = 49 : 35 : 55

Shortcut Trick

Loss = CP of 75 articles − SP of 75 articles = SP of 5 articles

⇒ CP of 75 articles = SP of (75 + 5) articles = SP of 80 articles

⇒ SP of 80 articles = Total CP = ₹10800

⇒ SP of 1 article = 10800 ÷ 80 = 135

∴ The correct answer is ₹135.

Alternate Method

Given:

Total articles purchased = 75

Total Cost Price (CP) = ₹10800

Loss incurred = Selling Price (SP) of 5 articles

Formula Used:

Loss = Total CP − Total SP

Calculations:

⇒ Total CP of 75 articles − Total SP of 75 articles = Loss

⇒ ₹10800 − SP of 75 articles = SP of 5 articles

⇒ ₹10800 = SP of 75 articles + SP of 5 articles

⇒ ₹10800 = SP of 80 articles

⇒ SP of 1 article = 10800 ÷ 80

⇒ SP of 1 article = 135

∴ The correct answer is ₹135.

Additional Information

Profit and Loss Equation

Profit occurs when SP > CP (Profit = SP − CP), and Loss occurs when CP > SP (Loss = CP − SP).

Similar Concept (Profit in terms of SP)

If there is a profit equal to the SP of y articles on selling x articles, then CP of x articles = SP of (x − y) articles.

Profit and Loss Percentage

Profit % = (Profit ÷ CP) × 100 | Loss % = (Loss ÷ CP) × 100. Both are computed on the Cost Price by default.

Given:

Discount Percentage = 25%

Profit Percentage = 40%

Formula used:

Cost Price : Marked Price = (100 - Discount percentage) : (100 + Profit percentage)

Calculation:

Cost price : Marked price = (100 - 25) : (100 + 40)

⇒ Cost price : Marked price = 75 : 140

⇒ Cost price : Marked price = 15 : 28

Let the cost price be 15x and marked price be 28x

Difference between marked price and cost price = 13x

∴ Percentage by which MP is greater than CP = (13x / 15x) × 100 = 260 / 3 = 86.67%

∴ The required percentage is 86.67%.

Concept:

If the average of n numbers is N and x is subtracted from each number then the new average will be N - x

If the average of n numbers is N and x is added to each number then the new average will be N + x

Formula used:

Average = Sum of all quantities / Total number of quantities

Calculation:

According to the question,

8 × 44 + 8Y = 8 × 47

⇒ 352 + 8Y = 376

⇒ 8Y = 24

⇒ Y = 3

∴ The constant term added to each number is 3.

Shortcut Trick

Old average = 44

New average = 47

Increment average = 47 - 44 = 3

∴ The constant term added to each number is 3.

For Y3, the ratio of expenditure to revenue = 0.84

So Profit = 1 - 0.84 = 0.16

Profit percentage = 16%

For Y4, the ratio of expenditure to revenue = 0.9

So Profit = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

Profit percentage = 10%

For Y7, the ratio of expenditure to revenue = 0.96

So Profit = 1 - 0.96 = 0.04

Profit percentage = 4%

∴ The profit percentage is lowest for Y7.

Alternate Method

Formula used:

Profit = Revenue - Expenditure

Profit percentage = Profit / Revenue × 100%

Calculation:

Method:

For Y1, Expenditure : Revenue = 0.8 = 80 / 100

Let Expenditure = 80x, Revenue = 100x

Then, Profit = 100x - 80x = 20x

Profit percentage = 20x / 100x × 100%

Profit percentage = 20%

Similarly,

For Y2,

Profit percentage = (100x - 75x) / 100x × 100% = 25%

For Y3,

Profit percentage = (100x - 84x) / 100x × 100% = 16%

For Y4,

Profit percentage = (100x - 90x) / 100x × 100% = 10%

For Y5,

Profit percentage = (100x - 70x) / 100x × 100% = 30%

For Y6,

Profit percentage = (100x - 75x) / 100x × 100% = 25%

For Y7,

Profit percentage = (100x - 96x) / 100x × 100% = 4%

Hence, The profit Percentage is lowest for Y7.

Important Points In this question we have provided the ratio of expenditure to revenue

Case 1 Y1

⇒ Expenditure/Revenue = 0.84

⇒ Expenditure/Revenue = 84/100

It means numerator part is expenditure, and denominator part is revenue.

Profit = Revenue - Expenditure

The correct answer is option 4, i.e., Handkerchief.

Key Points

• Out of the given options, only option 4 shows the correct spelling for 'Handkerchief'.
• Handkerchief means a square of cotton or other finely woven material intended for wiping one's nose. (रुई या अन्य बारीक बुनी हुई सामग्री का एक वर्ग जो किसी की नाक को पोंछने के लिए अभिप्रेत है)
• Example: I gave my handkerchief to him to wipe his face.

The correct answer is option 4, i.e., Extremely easy.

Key Points:- 

• Like a cakewalk means something that is very easy to achieve.
• Example: Winning the bicycle race was like a cakewalk for him.
• The phrase is directly related to doing something that is as easy as walking on a cake.
• Another origin of the phrase is a dance that African American slaves would perform in front of their white owners.
• The dance imitated the walk of the white men, and the winners received cake as the prize.

 

• Like a cakewalk का मतलब कुछ ऐसा है जिसे हासिल करना बहुत आसान है।
• उदाहरण: Winning the bicycle race was like a cakewalk for him.
• वाक्यांश सीधे कुछ ऐसा करने से संबंधित है जो केक पर चलना जितना आसान है।
• वाक्यांश का एक अन्य मूल एक नृत्य है जो अफ्रीकी अमेरिकी दास अपने गोरे मालिकों के सामने प्रदर्शन करते थे।
• नृत्य ने गोरे लोगों के चलने की नकल की, और विजेताओं को पुरस्कार के रूप में केक मिला।

The correct answer is option 2), i.e., Invented.

Explanation:

The blank is used after the simple past tense helping verb 'was'; suggesting that the blank must contain the past participle form of a verb.

Given the context, the verb must mean 'created'. 

Let's look at the meanings of the given options:

Discovered- find unexpectedly or during a search.

Invented- create or design (something that has not existed before).

Researched- investigate systematically.

Found- coming across something by chance or in an unexpected manner.

Out of these, only Invented can be appropriate for the given blank.

Thus, the complete sentence is: The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell.

The correct answer is option 3), i.e., more visible in his household.

• Explanation:
• The error lies in part 3, which uses the incorrect possessive pronoun 'his'.
• The sentence uses the singular feminine noun 'A woman'; so the correct pronoun here must also be feminine.
• Important Point:
• Singular Pronoun Rules: A masculine noun takes a masculine pronoun while a feminine noun uses feminine pronouns. Example: He was doing his job. (Masculine); She was going to her school. (Feminine)
• The correct singular pronoun for 'a woman' is the feminine pronoun 'her'.

<br>

Thus, the rectified sentence is: A woman’s real character will always be more visible in her household than anywhere else.

The correct answer is option 4), i.e., are a great misfortune.

• Explanation:
• The error lies in part 4, which uses the incorrect plural verb 'are'.
• The sentence uses the singular subject, 'a great fortune', so the corresponding verb must also be singular.
• Important Point:
• Subject-Verb Agreement Rule: A singular subject takes a singular verb; while a plural subject takes a plural verb. Example: Ram goes to school (Singular); They go to school. (Plural)
• The singular form of the verb 'To be' is 'Is', which must be correct here.

<br>

Thus, the rectified sentence is: A great fortune in the hands of a fool is a great misfortune.

The correct answer is option 2), i.e., Its hottest month.

Key Points

• The sentence uses the positive degree of adjective 'hot', which is incorrect here.
• The sentence is not merely stating a condition; but relating it to a condition that was never recorded before.
• So, in this case, the positive degree of adjective, which only describes a quality of the noun, cannot be appropriate.
• Important Point:
• Degrees of Adjective: A Superlative degree of adjective shows the upper/highest limit of the quality shown by the adjective. Example: She is the angriest person I have ever seen.
• Here, the sentence suggests that the condition of heat was the highest recorded in Australia.
• So, the appropriate degree of adjective here would be superlative, which is, 'Hottest'.

<br>

Thus, the rectified sentence is: Australia recorded its hottest month in January with sweltering conditions expected to persist through April.

The correct answer is option 3), i.e., Is.

• Explanation:
• The sentence has no verbs indicating an action. So, the blank must contain the main verb.
• The given sentence talks about the direct relation between the subject and object, viz, 'the flight of birds' being 'a pretty sight'.
• Important Point:
• So, the correct verb here must be a form of 'To be', showing this relationship.
• Out of the given options, both 'Is' and 'Are' are forms of 'To be'.
• But; since the given subject is a singular noun, 'flight', the verb must also be in its singular form, viz, 'Is'.

<br>

Thus, the complete sentence is: The flight of birds is a pretty sight to watch.

The correct answer is option 2, i.e., Eternal.

Key Points

• Everlasting means lasting forever or a very long time. ( हमेशा के लिए या बहुत लंबे समय तक चलने वाला)

• Equal- being the same in quantity, size, degree, or value. (मात्रा, आकार, डिग्री या मूल्य में समान होना)
• Eternal- lasting or existing forever; without end. (स्थायी या हमेशा के लिए विद्यमान; समाप्ति के बिना)
• Especial- better or greater than usual; special. (सामान्य से बेहतर या अधिक; विशेष)
• Essential- absolutely necessary; extremely important. (बिल्कुल आवश्यक; अत्यंत महत्वपूर्ण)
• Out of these, only Eternal is an appropriate synonym for Everlasting.

The correct answer is option 2, i.e., Dermatologist.

Key Points

• Let's look at the meanings of the given options:
• Cardiologist- a doctor who specializes in the study or treatment of heart diseases and heart abnormalities. (एक डॉक्टर जो हृदय रोगों और हृदय संबंधी असामान्यताओं के अध्ययन या उपचार में विशेषज्ञता रखता है)
• Dermatologist- a medical practitioner qualified to diagnose and treat skin disorders. (एक चिकित्सक जो त्वचा विकारों के निदान और उपचार के लिए योग्य है)
• Radiologist- a person who uses X-rays or other high-energy radiation, especially a doctor specializing in radiology. (एक व्यक्ति जो एक्स-रे या अन्य उच्च-ऊर्जा विकिरण का उपयोग करता है, विशेष रूप से रेडियोलॉजी में विशेषज्ञता वाला डॉक्टर)
• Gynecologist- a doctor specializing in diseases specific to women and girls, especially those affecting the reproductive system. (महिलाओं और लड़कियों के लिए विशिष्ट रोगों में विशेषज्ञता वाला डॉक्टर , विशेष रूप से प्रजनन प्रणाली को प्रभावित करने वाले)
• Out of these, Dermatologist shows the intended meaning.

The correct answer is Optional.

Key Points

• Compulsory means required by law or a rule; obligatory. (साधन कानून या नियम द्वारा आवश्यक; अनिवार्य)
• So, its opposite meaning must be willingly voluntarily done; something that is chosen. (इसका विपरीत अर्थ स्वेच्छा से किया जाना चाहिए; कुछ ऐसा जो चुना जाता है)

Additional Information

• Let's look at the meanings of the given options:
• Optional- available to be chosen but not obligatory. (चुने जाने के लिए उपलब्ध लेकिन अनिवार्य नहीं)
• Essential- absolutely necessary; extremely important. (बिल्कुल आवश्यक; अत्यंत महत्वपूर्ण)
• Important- of great significance or value. (बहुत महत्व या मूल्य का)
• Choice- an act of choosing between two or more possibilities. (दो या दो से अधिक संभावनाओं के बीच चयन करने की क्रिया)
• Out of these, only Optional is an appropriate antonym for Compulsory.

The correct answer is option 2), i.e., Tomorrow.

• Explanation:
• The blank is used at the end of the sentence, which suggests that it must contain an adverb.
• The sentence uses the simple future tense form 'Will be discussed'.
• Important Point:
• This means the adverb must also reflect a future time, when the meeting is supposed to happen.
• Out of the given options, only 'Tomorrow' indicates a future time.

<br>

Thus, the completed sentence is: This question will be discussed at the meeting tomorrow.

The correct answer is option 4, i.e., Plumber.

Key Points

Let's look at the meanings of the given options:

• Blacksmith- a person who creates objects from wrought iron or steel by forging the metal, using tools to hammer, bend, and cut. (एक व्यक्ति जो लोहे या स्टील से धातु को फोर्ज करके, हथौड़े, मोड़ने और काटने के उपकरण का उपयोग करके वस्तुओं का निर्माण करता है)
• Carpenter- a person who makes and repairs wooden objects and structures. (एक व्यक्ति जो लकड़ी की वस्तुओं और संरचनाओं को बनाता और मरम्मत करता है)

• Plumber- a person who fits and repairs the pipes and other apparatus of water supply, sanitation, or heating systems. ( एक व्यक्ति जो पाइप और पानी की आपूर्ति, स्वच्छता, या हीटिंग सिस्टम के अन्य उपकरणों को फिट और मरम्मत करता है)

Out of these, only Plumber shows the intended meaning.

The correct answer is option 3), i.e., On the eleventh hour.

• Explanation:
• The error lies in option 3, which uses the incorrect preposition 'On'.
• On- used to indicate the day or part of a day during which an event takes place. Example: She retired on Monday.
• The sentence uses the phrase 'eleventh hour', which suggests a more specific time than 'a day'. So, the preposition 'On' cannot be appropriate here.
• Important Point:
• The sentence is describing time in hours; so it requires a more time-specific preposition, such as 'At'.
• At- used to express the exact time when an event takes place. Example: The train arrives at 9 o'clock.
• Extra Point:
• Using the preposition 'At' also forms the phrase 'At the eleventh hour'; which means 'at the last moment'.

<br>

Thus, the rectified sentence is: At the eleventh hour, she retired from the contest, leaving the field open to her opponent.

The correct answer is option 4, i.e., Accommodate.

Key Points

• Out of the given options, only option 4 shows the correct spelling of the word 'Accommodate'.
• Accommodate (समायोजित) means to adapt to; provide lodging or sufficient space for. (के अनुकूल बनने के लिए; रहने या पर्याप्त जगह उपलब्ध कराने के लिए)
• Example: The hotel can accommodate up to 300 guests.

The correct answer is option 3), i.e., With.

Explanation:

Let's look at how the given prepositions are used:

By- used to identify the agent performing an action or the means of achieving something. Example: It was done by him.

From- used to show the source where an action of event starts. Example: The train came from London.

With- accompanied by; having; showing the instrument used for something. Example: I killed the enemy with a sword.

Off- removed or separated; moving away from a direction. Example: The car turned off the main road.

Main Point: 

The given sentence talks about mother cutting vegetables 'using an instrument', viz, knife.

So, the most appropriate preposition here must be 'With'.

Thus, the complete sentence is: Mother cuts vegetables with a knife.

The correct answer is option 2, i.e., To not feel well.

Key Points

• To be under the weather means 'to be slightly unwell or in low spirits.' (थोड़ा अस्वस्थ होना)
• Example: I decided not to go to school as I was feeling a little under the weather.

Important Points

• *The phrase originated in the old days when a sailor was sent below deck to recover when he was feeling unwell. (*यह वाक्यांश पुराने दिनों में उत्पन्न हुआ था जब एक नाविक को ठीक होने के लिए डेक के नीचे भेजा गया था जब वह अस्वस्थ महसूस कर रहा था।)
• *This way he would be away from and under the weather. (*इस तरह वह मौसम से दूर और नीचे रहेगा)

The correct answer is Civilized.

Key Points

• Savage means fierce, violent, and uncontrolled. (भयंकर, हिंसक और अनियंत्रित). It is usually related to a lower level of development in mammals.
• So, its opposite meaning must be something that is tamed and not dangerous.
• Let's look at the meanings of the given options:
• Civilized- at an advanced stage of social and cultural development. (सामाजिक और सांस्कृतिक विकास के एक उन्नत चरण में)
• Tribal- of or characteristic of a tribe or tribes. (किसी जनजाति या जनजाति की विशेषता)
• Rustic- relating to the countryside; rural. (ग्रामीण इलाकों से संबंधित)
• Stern- serious and unrelenting, especially in the assertion of authority and exercise of discipline. (कठोर)
• Out of these, only Civilized is an appropriate antonym for Savage.

The correct answer is option 1), i.e., Into the interior of.

Explanation:

Let's look at how the given prepositions are used:

In- showing movement where something becomes surrounded by something else. Example: I am living in London.

Into- expressing movement where something is physically enclosed by something else. Example: I put the glass into the fridge.

On- physically in contact with and supported by (a surface). Example: The apple is on the table.

Along- moving in a constant direction with another entity, such as a  path, river etc. Example: We were moving along the banks of Ganga.

Important Point:

The sentence uses the preposition 'in', which is incorrect here.

The sentence talks about 'the interior' of the Red Fort. So, the preposition must also reflect this physical enclosing of one object by another.

Given the context, only the preposition 'Into' is appropriate here.

Confusion Point:

The preposition 'along' may seem correct; but it is not. 'Along' needs another fixed path with a direction, with which a person/thing moves. 'Interior' is the general inside area; it does not suggest a specific direction.

Thus, the rectified sentence is: As you make your way into the interior of Red Fort, lush green gardens greet you.

The correct answer is 'Enthusiast.'

Key Points

• Fanatic means filled with or expressing excessive zeal or enthusiasm. (Fanatic का अर्थ है अत्यधिक जोश या उत्साह से भरा हुआ।)
• Let's look at the meanings of the given options:
• Enthusiast- a person who is very interested in a particular activity or subject. (वह व्यक्ति जो किसी विशेष गतिविधि या विषय में बहुत रुचि रखता हो।)
• Fantastic- extraordinarily good or attractive. (असाधारण रूप से अच्छा या आकर्षक।)
• Famed- known about by many people; renowned. (कई लोगों द्वारा जाना जाने वाला; प्रसिद्ध।)
• Great- of an extent, amount, or intensity considerably above average. (एक हद तक, राशि, या तीव्रता औसत से काफी ऊपर।)
• Out of these, Enthusiast is an appropriate synonym for 'Fanatic.'

Additional Information

• Let us see the use of the given words in a sentence:
  

The correct answer is option 1), i.e., Describing his arrest.

• Explanation:
• The sentence uses the incorrect verb 'described'.
• Since there is no conjunction used, the given verb should be in its present progressive form, suggesting a continuation of the action shown by the first verb.
• The present progressive form of the verb 'To Describe' is 'describing'.
• The pronoun 'his' is appropriate here for the noun 'Professor', and requires no correction.
• Extra Point:
• The correct phrase 'Describing his arrest as illegal' is also an adverb phrase, giving more information about the verb.

<br>

Thus, the rectified sentence is: A city court ordered the immediate release of a professor describing his arrest as illegal.

The correct answer is option 1, i.e., Remembered.

• Explanation:
• The blank is used right after the adverb 'just', suggesting that it must contain a verb.
• The sentence uses the auxiliary verb 'have', showing present perfect tense. This means that the main verb in the blank must be in its past participle form.
• The past participle form of the verb 'To Remember' is 'Remembered', shown by option 1.

<br>

Thus, the complete sentence is: I have just remembered that it is your birthday on Saturday and so I send you my best wishes.

The correct answer is option 4, i.e., Peaceful.

Key Points 

• The blank is used to give more information about 'the day', so the blank must contain an adjective, which gives more information about it.
• The sentence talks about the birthday being a happy occasion for the person, so the blank must reflect an emotional quality similar to it.
• Only 'Plentiful' or 'Peaceful' can be appropriate here.
• Plentiful - existing in or yielding great quantities; abundant.
• For Example - Coal is cheap and plentiful.
• 'Plentiful' cannot be used to describe 'a day'.
• Excited will not be used because a day cannot be excited for someone.
• Instead, it can be exciting for someone.
• Peaceful - free from disturbance; tranquil.
• For Example - His peaceful mood vanished.

Hinglish 

• रिक्त स्थान का उपयोग 'the day' के बारे में अधिक जानकारी देने के लिए किया जाता है, इसलिए रिक्त स्थान में एक विशेषण होना चाहिए, जो इसके बारे में अधिक जानकारी देता है।
• वाक्य व्यक्ति के लिए जन्मदिन को एक खुशी का अवसर होने के बारे में बात करता है, इसलिए रिक्त स्थान को इसके समान भावनात्मक गुण को प्रतिबिंबित करना चाहिए।यहां केवल 'Plentiful' या 'Peaceful' ही उपयुक्त हो सकता है।
• Plentiful - बड़ी मात्रा में विद्यमान या उपज देने वाला; प्रचुर।
• For Example - Coal is cheap and plentiful.
• 'A day' का वर्णन करने के लिए 'plentiful' का उपयोग नहीं किया जा सकता है।
• Peaceful - अशांति से मुक्त; शांत
• For Example - His peaceful mood vanished.
• तो, यहाँ सही विशेषण 'peaceful' होना चाहिए, जैसा कि विकल्प 4 में दिखाया गया है।

<br>

इस प्रकार, पूरा वाक्य है: I hope the day itself will be peaceful and happy for you.

The correct answer is option 2, i.e., With.

• Explanation:
• The blank is used between a verb and a noun, so the blank must contain a preposition.
• The sentence talks about being 'showered'. So the only appropriate preposition here is 'showered with'.
• The preposition 'with' is only shown by option 2.

Thus, the complete sentence is: May you be showered with health and happiness for all the years to come.
